THE MAKING OF CHAMPIONS

Pettersen went on to work at the Calgary Olympic Games as Venue Coordinator/Manager and Chief of Race during the very successful cross-country ski events at Canmore, Alberta.

A Cross Country Ski Story is also the story of how the Americans led North America to improved international results and for the Europeans it is the story of their domination of international racing. Canadian stars Alex Harvey and Devon Kershaw brought the country to its feet again winning Team Sprint gold at the Nordic Worlds in Oslo, Norway in 2011 and then Harvey followed in Pierre Harvey footsteps, his legendary father's feat, winning the 50km freestyle race at the Worlds in Lahti, Finland last season.
